SERG Design Lab
What We Do
The purpose of the Design Lab is to support and encourage students, faculty, local educators, and non-profit organizations in their endeavors to design, create, experiment, and prototype with technology in education.
The SERG Design Lab lives on the third floor of Ridley Hall.
An important part of our work in the Design Lab is to help educators integrate technology, computer science, and computational thinking through culturally responsive teaching and equitable teaching practices. Our goal is to provide future and current educators with a comfortable working environment in the Design Lab and we want all EHD students to know they are welcome in the Design Lab, no matter what their area of study.
We have lots of craft supplies and other consumables for creating, designing, experimenting, and prototyping. You can find these materials in Ridley Hall room 304 (next to the Design Lab).
We also have a variety of robotics and other physical computing devices that you can borrow.
